My Crown is Peace

March 16, 2020 / Helena / Leave a comment

I’m not sure how many of you follow me on Instagram, but I decided to take two weeks off social media back on March 5th. I had no idea that this virus hoopla was going to unfold during my hiatus, but I am so grateful I have been off social media for this! Let me … Continue reading My Crown is Peace

Hannah’s Birth Story

September 26, 2019September 26, 2019 / Helena / 1 Comment

This pregnancy, I was much more confident and verbal about the desires of my heart. I prayed for specific things, which can sometimes feel so petty. People (and the enemy, hello) can be quick to dismiss a detailed prayer, say "oh but anything will do!" at the end as if they didn't really mean the … Continue reading Hannah’s Birth Story

2018 Reflections

December 31, 2018 / Helena / 1 Comment

I don't quite know what it is about the end of the year that brings this wistful, nostalgic atmosphere, but I love it! There's a palpable quietness in my spirit, almost as if the calendar slows down my thoughts and heaven's wisdom descends like a fog. I learned about pain and selflessness. It wasn't anything … Continue reading 2018 Reflections

Striving, Anxiety, and Light

December 5, 2018 / Helena / 1 Comment

God is pulling out of my heart the deep root of striving. It seems common to manufacture our worth with many, many, many tasks so we can feel purposeful. Let's be honest, what kind of people would we be if we got nothing done? We'd be worthless, right? That’s not what God says. We put … Continue reading Striving, Anxiety, and Light

The Wedding Scoop

June 30, 2018 / Helena / Leave a comment

I was bursting at the seams with stories from engagement and the wedding, and I think there are a few reasons I shelved them instead of posting them right away. Engagement was a whirlwind, then I was in such a happy blur from the wedding that I needed time to write and process. And then … Continue reading The Wedding Scoop

The Best Year

December 17, 2017 / Helena / 1 Comment

Chalk it up to God's perfect timing, love, and kindness, but I have had the best year of my entire life thus far. I thought my best years might have been behind me, but how wrong was I to entertain that thought! I looked back and thought maybe my junior year of high school was … Continue reading The Best Year

Early Spring

March 24, 2017 / Helena / 1 Comment

Hello, old friend. Here I am, thinking of all the clichés applicable to this comeback moment. I might as well skip trying to state the obvious and move on to what's churning in my soul. I'm sitting at a banquet table, and the Host will not stop putting delicious, much-too-large portions before me. Just when … Continue reading Early Spring

Fighting For Peace

May 10, 2016May 10, 2016 / Helena / 1 Comment

There's a fine, dotted line between letting something go and standing up for oneself. It feels like a seesaw, where it's not any fun when you're always letting things go and becoming a bitter pushover, and it's no fun at all to make a fuss over every bump on the road. A wise man once … Continue reading Fighting For Peace

Ebb and Flow

April 25, 2016 / Helena / 1 Comment

Life has been vibrant and wonderful. I've been trying to understand what Jesus meant by "fullness of life" and not get it twisted with "obligation of life" or "busyness of life" or any other kind of misconception of the meaning of FULLNESS. My walk with God has gone through natural periods of ebbing and flowing, … Continue reading Ebb and Flow

Overflow and Fairytales

March 16, 2016March 16, 2016 / Helena / 3 Comments

As a child, it was so easy to believe it all. I wanted to be everything when I grew up. Well, now it's here. I'm grown up. This is the age when adults do adult things. I'm turning 29 in less than a month, and the people I babysat are grown up, too. As for … Continue reading Overflow and Fairytales
